Gotta try those this summer! Whats the loop around the lake like? Gravel and flat?
I spend most time in the craters mountain bike park.
I have ridden the cycle path near town with the kids, it is wide and paved.
See: Great lake trails; and Bike Taupo for some good tracks. I have done a lot of these over the years, W2K and K2k are nice medium level rides. There is a lot of riding in craters, at various levels....I'll be going this weekend with the kids.
Not really gravel or flat, a lot of pumice and a little mud, some decent climbs on W2K and K2K, but once on the top is flows from up to down nicely.
